Reporters Without Borders has created a zone in Minecraft where published articles can be reviewed.
The in-game area provides a safe space in which to publish articles that have been reviewed in the reporter ’s country of origin.
Minecraft users have access to the "Uncensored Library" on the open Minecraft server, where they can find articles written by journalists from Egypt, Russia, Saudi Arabia and other countries (thanks to GI.biz).
You can read these articles as in-game books.
The blog post wrote: "News reporters from five different countries now have a place to express their voice again despite being banned, imprisoned, exiled, and even killed." "Their taboo articles are revisited in books within Minecraft Publishing gives readers the opportunity to understand the actual political situation in their country and the importance of freedom of the press.
"Let us empower the next generation to defend their right to know and provide them with powerful tools to fight oppressive leaders: knowledge. Together with the expanding gaming community, we will show the world the truth and it will never be silent."
If you visit the official website, it explains how to download "Uncensored Library" maps in Minecraft.
